What is the history of the Chevrolet Celebrity?
The Chevrolet Celebrity was a mid-size car built by the Chevrolet division of General Motors. The Celebrity was introduced in 1981 for the 1982 model year. Sales were strong — the Celebrity was the best-selling car in the United States in 1986. Celebrities were built at Oshawa Car Assembly in Ontario, Canada; Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Framingham, Massachusetts, Bogota, Colombia and Ramos Arizpe, Mexico. Although sold for only one generation, it received its first facelift in 1984, and the other in 1986, which included a sleeker front end and a simpler taillight layout. The Celebrity's last facelift was in 1987, when composite headlamps replaced the quad rectangular sealed beam units. The coupe was discontinued after 1988, and Celebrity production ended on July 7, 1989, with the exception of the Wagon, which was disconinued a few months after 1989. The Chevrolet Celebrity was based on the front wheel drive A-body shared with the Buick Century, Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera, Oldsmobile Cutlass Cruiser and the Pontiac 6000.
